    Why do I wait Soooo long before I finally break down and change the blade on my rotary cutter??? It is like cutting thru butter with a hot knife when I change the blade. I am the only who trys to get every cut and then some out of my blades??

    I think part of the reason I don't is because I don't have another blade on hand and when I finally get another one, I forget to change it right away. Once I get frustrated enough, I'll finally change it. But no, you're not the only one

    I'm just a bloomin', cheap, tightwad! I do agree though, when the blade gets changed how much easier life gets. :)
